Random Notes

When arriving at Hamburg-Altona by long-distance train ("Fernbahn"): Exit the train and
continue on the platform in the driving direction of the train. When you arrive at the
end of the platform (this is a dead-end station), turn left. At the end of the station
building, you will notice the "Intercity hotel" building, right next to the last train
track. Pass the hotel building and turn left into the street "Präsident-Krahn Straße".
Follow that street (which runs in parallel to the train tracks) for approx. 400 meters.
After having passed one small street, you will arrive at an intersection with traffic
light where you have the street "Julius-Leber-Straße" on your right, and a very dirty
tunnel under the train tracks on your left. At that intersection, pass straight on over
the street "Julius-Leber-Straße". Then turn slightly right into the street
"Haubachstraße" - it starts behind a road block. Walk down Haubachstraße for another 100
meters. The next street on your right is the street "Goetheallee". Our place is
"Goetheallee 30" which is the white building directly on the corner of Goetheallee and
Haubachstraße. Our door bell is clearly labeled "Anne & Christian Stimming".

In case your train connection gets changed, you might end up in another train that stops
only at Hamburg-Hauptbahnhof (Hbf) but not at Hamburg-Altona. In this case, in
Hamburg-Hbf you change to the Underground train ("S-Bahn") and use that to get to
Hamburg-Altona. When you arrive at Hamburg-Altona by S-Bahn (i.e. underground), exit the
underground station by following the signs to the long-distance trains ("Fernbahn"). When
you stand right in front of the long-distance train tracks, turn right towards the
"Intercity hotel" building. Continue as above.
